In electrical engineering, capacitive sensing (sometimes capacitance sensing) is a technology, based on capacitive coupling, that can detect and measure anything that is conductive or has a dielectric different from air.
There are some practical steps you can try to ease hot flashes and/or night sweats: 1  Sleep in a cool room. 2  Dress in layers, which can be removed at the start of a hot flash. 3  Have a drink of cold water or juice when you feel a hot flash coming on. 4  Use sheets and clothing that let your skin âbreathe.â. 5  Donât smoke.
Sweating is your bodyâs way of cooling itself off. Some people arenât able to sweat normally because their sweat glands are no longer functioning properly. This condition is known as hypohidrosis, or anhidrosis. It can affect your entire body, a single area, or scattered areas. The inability to sweat normally can cause overheating. This can lead to heat stroke, which is a potentially life-threatening condition.
